I had about 60 of these left over from about 5 or so years ago. I shot a few group's and ran them over the chrono for the heck of it.

5 rounds at 12.5 yards from a rest 1.90", 3 into .55"
8 rounds at 12.5 yards from a rest 2.25", 6 into 1.75"

5 rounds at 12.5 yards offhand, 1.85", 3 into .60"

Velocity:

12 feet from screen
Elevation 7200 foot

Average: 1362 fps from a 4.25" barrel.

Box flap 1475 fps from a 4.6" barrel.

Overall impression, nice load, accurate, moderate recoil. Hit's point of aim.

Thanks for posting the results. There have been some around here that suggested the older DT ammo was more/less up to box flap claims. Guess not. Any chance the powder and primers deteriorated a tad in 5 years of storage in high humidity, or half that time in direct sunlight? Just kidding, I'm sure not. Thanks again for posting. I think DT has been screwing the 10mm crowd for longer than once thought.:faint:

Luckily we now have Swamp Fox ammo available!
